Unexpected Christmas Plot
When the Scott family gathers for Christmas, the perfect dream reunion that Momma Scott (Anna Maria Horsford) planned quickly turns upside down. Her daughter Marissa (DomiNque Perry) returns fresh off a breakup with her boyfriend Richard (Lil Rel Howery) and is shocked when Richard arrives arm in arm with her estranged stepsister Kerry (Reagan Gomez). Marissa tries to play it cool and invites a surprise guest of her own who has everyone talking, while Kerry is cooking up a scheme that could ruin the whole celebration. Add in a few romantic mix-ups, old rivalries, and plenty of family secrets, and everyone is in for an unforgettable holiday. With love, laughter, and a bit of chaos 'round every corner, this Christmas might bring the Scotts closer together—or blow the roof off the house!
